    Screens 84-87 aren't used for anything, right?

    Just asking, because the ZQuest documentation only mentions 80-83 (of which 82 is "Reserved"). What do the developers intend for them, anyway?

    (This doesn't count as "Quest Editor Help", does it?)

    No, not to my knowledge. But I don't recommend using them for anything, as I've heard that using them could create unstable Quests. It is Best to pretend they are not there.

    Using one of the 80's screens as a regular screen almost guarentees that your quest is going to be unplayable down the road, incase they decide to give any specific special data to one of those rooms in the future. I'd suggest just sticking to using extra Dmaps to get more screens out of a single area. I mean, since we've had some features added to decrease the NEED to make new Dmaps for something specific (screen-specific midis, for example), the chances of running out of Dmaps seems to have dropped quite a bit, so I doubt you'll need every screen, including the "extra" 80's, of all 255 Dmaps. :p
